Black is often perceived to be a very plain and boring hue, but this photo shoot reminds us of how fun, versatile and powerful the color actually is when paired with the right accessories. From feathered hair pieces and [leather scarf belts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/replica-suit), to silver grid bracelets and gold sequined vests, this photo shoot expresses the power of the deep shade. The editorial also expresses a lot of fun personality and femininity. Heavy solid makeup, [blood red lips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rouge-noir) and teased hair emphasize the model's strong, female confidence and her daring poses and exposed skin symbolize her desire to be unique and provocative. ‘Back in Black’ is a fresh, funky editorial that packs serious punch and reminds us of how good the [rocker chick style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-x-metallica) looks. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 70% | Activity: 43% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Bold Color Fashion:** There is an opportunity for fashion businesses to create unique and edgy accessories, makeup, and apparel that feature bold colors like black and red. - **Rocker Chic Style:** The use of leather, metal, and other edgy materials in fashion can be expanded to create clothing and accessories that embody the rocker chic style. - **Solid Makeup Looks:** Makeup companies can innovate by creating bold, solid makeup looks that symbolize confidence and power. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Fashion businesses can capitalize on the trend toward bold colors and edgy materials to create unique and eye-catching clothing and accessories. - **Makeup:** The trend toward solid makeup looks presents an opportunity for makeup companies to create new products that emphasize confidence and power. - **Photography:** The rise in popularity of heavy metal-inspired photoshoots presents an opportunity for photographers to showcase their skills in capturing the essence of rocker chic style. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Black-Colored Lip Tint Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/romnd-black-lip.md) - [Monochrome Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [Punk Rock-Informed Fall Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superculture-collection.md) - [Material-Exploring Industrial-Style Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/industrialstyle-lighting.md) - [Expressive Haircare Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/play-in-color.md) - [Iconic Band Apparel Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freaks-store-2.md) - [Stealthy Modern Monochromatic Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-tag-collection.md) - [80s Metal-Band-Inspired Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-x-metallica.md)
